Griever Lionheart;157639 wroteIn my mind both shoulder pauldrons are shaped like Lion's heads with a single sword at the side and a cross bow on the back. No need for alot of weapons with magic and skill.
You don't have to trouble yourself with drawing my character if you don't want to. I hope my writing will be efficient enough to give people an idea of what he looks like and IMO all people need are a frame of reference.
thats true, well i was not going to trouble myself with the magic skills and so on...
But i will see if i will continue with trying to draw it or not.
Now time for my background story.
Name: (don't have any name yet)
Age: 21
Skin: Suntanned
Hair: Brown/black with some white areas.
More information will be added later on.
Alright i guess i should write the story of my character....
[FONT=Comic Sans MS]
Long ago when i was at the age of 7years old, there was a war that had started on our island where most of us inhabitants lived peacefully since we co-existed with humans with knowledge of tools and machinery also impressive sword abilities, also the Beast men who has the knowledge of the forrests, animals and various fighting abilities with either Spear or Bow.
These Inhabitants lived in harmony with each others some humans also crossbreed with the beast men, and this is where my life started.
Iam born from a Human father and Beast Mother, we lived happily with the rest of the ppl on the islands, even thought some times both humans and beast men stared at me like an outcast.
When i were at the age of 5 years old i was taught sword fighting and simple magic from my father and hunting as well as elemental magic from my mother with the help of a bow.
Then later on i had mastered most of the skills both my father and mother have taught me, but then at my 7th birthday a war broke out on our island.
Our island that is located far away from the rest of the islands where we can barely see the islands even with our great eyesight as beast men, or should i say half beast men as i am.
The attack that came was fierce and apparently it was a co-ed attack from all three opposing islands and we witness this since they were wearing different Armour and symbolic flags from those floating islands that we are aware of.
We were no match since we are a peaceful island so most of the magic knowledge that we beast men or humans possessed were lost in the time that has flown pass, since we had no use of magical attack or defense.
We were overthrown in just 7days resisting, my father and mother wanted to save their only child so they gave me some ancient books containing the ancient magic of both humans and beast men, and they used up their magic to safely teleport me to a destination where the other Sky people can't get to me.
While my parents were doing this using a ancient magic that has not been used for around 700year time, i could witness the murder that were taking place in the town, this was no war this was a slaughter that those 3 greatest islands floating in the sky did.
When i was finally teleported i found myself in a area i have never seen in my entire life or even heard of, this savage land that reeks of death of several different unknown animals to me.
What would i a 7 year old child that posses little knowledge of magic, a sword and a bow do out in this stone land.
While i was thinking what to do in order to survive i was trying to figure out how to display my revenge against those 3 islands that massacre an entire island inhabited of both humans and beast men that lived peacefully.
While thinking all this i found out that i no longer are standing on a island that is floating in the sky but rather on a islands that is stuck at the ocean, i have heard story of a continent that once used to fly in the sky with the rest of the islands and were the island that connected the others true trade but that a war broke out on that island for supreme control over the trade, the war was so fierce that the magical chain broke and ended the dispute of who would control the trading stock.
Those living on that island has ever since then prepared for the second war that never happened since no one want anything to do with the island that is no longer part of the sky.
With this story in my mind i decided to gather the inhabitants that live in this continent and prepare a great army to overthrow the 3 great kingdoms of the sky and make it equal for all.
So as the days pass i read the books i inherited from my parents and eat the small amount of food supply i had with me, then i finally reached a mountain and i also found water to drink so instead of taking any precautions i dropped all my belongings and clothes and just jumped into the fresh water and enjoyed myself, until i noticed a creature on the other side drinking the water.
I quickly swam back to where i dropped my belongings picked up my sword and bow, the creature tries to scare me away but i still stand with my guard up, thats when i notice this creature i read about it in the books before so i quickly dried myself of on the clothes and picked up the book and found the page i was looking for, thats when the creature started to move towards me, i quickly read as fast as i could and found a spell to use against this creature.
I casted my spell against the creature and the creature stopped for a moment but then kept on coming closer to me and just when i think it would attack me i raised my sword ready to spear the head of the creature when it attacks, but instead of attacking the creature bow down its head towards me.
I picked up the book once more and read carefully, "When confronted of the Dragon you want to posses as your familiar you should stay calm and not move when the Dragon itself tries to provoke you. If the Dragon moves closer to you then the Dragon do feel a certain presence from you that make the Dragon not wanting to rush faster to you, with this you then have a chance of making this Dragon your familiar by casting the spell that is written at the bottom of this page."
So it seems i found myself a familiar i guess i should learn some more of this creature then what kind of creature it is.
While time passes even further into the future when he has become 12 years old.
With the help of my Dragon familiar i have scouted around what exists on this island and i have also found a tower at the top of the mountain that seems to be vacant so i moved in there at the age of 8, and lived there since then.
The tower itself is a maze inside i have yet to figure out every room it has but it seems to be a castle within the mountain itself with only the tower sticking out at the top and also some of the side can be seen from the ground.
I have nothing to worry about from the other Dragons in this land since apparently my familiar is one of the noble Dragon you can find on this island and at the time it became my familiar it was only the age of 3 years old so my familiar that has the name Drake has become even larger then it was when i first met him, Drake has guarded me well from other dragons also making it hard for others to get close to this tower.
During the past years i have studied the books i obtained from my parents and kept on training on my sword, bow and staff skills so it wont rust away with the time.
I have discovered i can freely make various not all nut most of the plants to grow at a extraordinary speed and also to the shape i wish it for, i may also control rocks at my will creating various rock-Golems or wooden-Golems that obediently listen to my commands, water is something i may control as well.
I cannot control fire since that does not belong to my elemental skills of a half human and half beast men as iam.
Elements i can control is *Earth, this is where plants are included i can make plants grow with just dropping the seed of one and make it grow to an adult tree for an example, rocks are included into this element as well so are many more but i have yet to figure out what that may be. *Water, i may control the flow of the water also creating water-Golems as well as rock-Golems and wooden-Golems.
I also practice in using this magic for Offensive attacks as well as Defensive moves, also trying to get the healing abilities to work better then just heal minor scratch wounds.
As the year pass even further ahead with 8years that now this half human and half beast men has become 20years old.
Now that the time has flown rather fast, ive done nothing to get closer to my revenge beside training myself to become stronger.
The only ppl i have seen so far and talking to are dwarfs that lives in teh deepest room of the mountain castle, where they construct Armour, weapons and various machines.
So i have discussed with them to create Armour and Weapons for a future army as well as Machines that should be able to fly to the floating islands without any major problems and carrying part of the army and other machines that should be use for the war.
Apparently the accepted this on one term.
The term was to restrict the water that flows from the mountain to the citizen living on the island, so i agreed with this term.
The reason was that these dwarf would need a great amount of water supply so they could quickly cool-down the magical-metal they uses.
This agreement was done 5years ago at the age of 15 i was then.
Shortly after i restricted the water supply, the inhabitants of the islands started to complain quickly, thats when i started to explain to them what it was i were doing and planning to do with the excessive amount of water.
After a few days quarrel with them, most of them agreed to what i said.
So they started to show me what they had stored deep down an old mine they used, there they had weaponry and machinery ready for a war after getting some service done to them since most of them are incapable of moving or to be used, so i told the dwarf about this, and they were really happy about these news since they knew the ancient had better construction the they have at the present since the dwarf now only worked for hobby and assisting the farmers with farmer tools, they lost some of the arts in the years, but with this they seriously started constructing several weaponry and armour as well as machines.
5 years after they started doing this they are almost complete.
So the time has come to start training up warriors and magic users for this upcoming war that will take place in 5years from this day.
At the age of 20 he have assembled a small army that are training hard everyday in several different skills, getting familiars of their own that will assist them in this war.
While this fierce training is taking place i myself and some more of my subordinates went out to gather more ppl for this upcoming war, gather some beast men North and South-West of the map that were living outside the forrests, gathering some dwarfs that rather wanna fight out there and operating the machine they have built while some stay behind smithing more various stuff, gathering fishermen from the East of the map.
While doing all this were also gathering various animals that will assist us fighting the enemy in the air since we know they posses Gryphon's, Winged horses and there is also legends that some Human like species has wings growing out of their backs that might pose a great threat towards us since apparently they might posses magic abilities that is far greater then others.
We posses our various Dragons of all sizes with different skills such as breathing fire or speed that can't be compared with.
Another year passes, now i am age of 21 and has formed an army possessing the amount of nearly 26'000 people.
And were hoping that the number will increase even further with the 4years before the war starts.
With all this i can see that my revenge will come true, for my home island and parents, the 3 sky kingdoms will pay with the cost of their lives.
What happens now in the future i cannot say since i have yet to arrive there.[/FONT]
